General
- With the refined ores we can enhance the properties of all jewellery (Bracelets, Earrings, Necklaces and Belts). This enhancement refers only to the items with default bonuses (eg Attack Speed and HP on Silver Bracelet). But not to the changeable bonuses.
- By using

Diamond on the accessories, it will open slots for refined ores. This process can fail, and the maximum number of slots is 3. - In these slots the player can now insert ores corresponding to the accessoire (eg

Copper in 
Copper Earrings, 
Silver in 
Silver Bracelet). - The added ores have a time limit. It runs only on the last inserted ore, and only if the item is equipped. When the time expires, the ore will disappear and the empty slot will remain, after this the time will run on the next ore (if available).
- If another ore is added before the previous one runs out, the previous ore will have the full duration filled again
- An accessory with freshly added ores will have a duration of 42 hours (6+12+24)
| Position | Time | Default bonus increases by |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 24h | 10% |
| 2 | 12h | 10% |
| 3 | 6h | 20% |
Ores mining and Pickaxe
- To get started you will need to mine ores from veins. This can be done by using a


Pickaxe. Then find a vein that corresponds your needs. Each vein can be found at specific maps. See the table further below. - For

80.000 Yang you can buy a Pickaxe from in Map2 or Dong Gwang Plain. You must be at least level 30 to be able to use the pickaxe. - You can learn the secondary skill
'Mining' by reading the Book 
Mining Guide.
- The maximum level is P, just like regular character skills
- You only need one book for all levels
- The higher the level of the skill, the more ores you can receive upon successful attempt
- For each attempt you mine, you will receive a point regardless of a successful attempt or not.
- When a Pickaxe has reached its maximum points, you can upgrade it by Deokbae. Upgrading however can fail except to +1.
- Should an upgrade fail, you will lose 10% of its points.
- The higher the level of Pickaxe, the higher chance of dropping ores.
